We talked about Project 3 today. Malena showed us examples of site specific work. I thought my Time project was site specific- should have saved it for this one. I loved Scarlett Craafland's work. It was almost biblical - her naked body against nature- but we don't consider naked women with nature anymore- naked women are considered sexual, provacative, and in some ways sinful. But I consider the naked body as parts of nature, like Adam and Eve. Also, we looked at Andy Goldsworthy's work which was more obviously nature vs. nature. I would love to do something like that- but i dont think i would have the patience. In his videos he didnt explain what his work meant to him- I really wish he would have- it sure is aesthetically pleasing, but what does it mean?
